Ryk - receptor-like tyrosine kinase

Predicted to enable Wnt-activated receptor activity; Wnt-protein binding activity; and frizzled binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including nervous system development; positive regulation of MAPK cascade; and positive regulation of kinase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including generation of neurons; negative chemotaxis; and skeletal system morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Orthologous to human RYK (receptor like tyrosine kinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
